Thanks, Cause Ive have had them types of cars vx220, exige s and they lack power even with mods. Plus I don’t like being a sheep and having the same car/mods/doing the same thing as everyone else
Yeah there is including myself probably the same amount of people that have done the same type of mods/gone further than I have fingers to a C63, the main reason being that the aftermarket platform is not good for Mercedes if you compare whats available for BMW/Porsche and when it is its more expensive, or you have to get things custom made like I have, very little people know how to work on these cars for the same type of mods and most people like copying everyone else Even R35 GTR’s weight over 1800kg and handle good, yes they have better electronics helping but it still a boat.
Great mods for a model that doesnt have many available mods, hence the cost premium. I've owned a few bmws even the M cars like the e46 needed mods to the suspension etc to improve handling, so I can imagine bringing those to a good chassis like the 204 and pairing that legendary engine to a better suspension set up will noticeably improve handling, I doubt there's much out there in a family car guise that will feel as special. A 507 edition c63 will probably cost over 40k and may not even have an LSD and will need work to run the power numbers yours is running. If i manage to not swap my w212 for a s213 e63s I'm test driving on Thursday, I too will be starting my modding journey with my 6.2l e63. It's got the lsd and performance pack and I'm very happy with how the factory lsd performs, I'll stick to long tube headers for now and maybe a remap. Alternatively I'll look to remove the noise deadening insulation to liven up the cabin. My m3 is really loud and the family doesn't mind it so they won't mind a noisier e63. Revving less for more sound will save my fuel bill haha
